Genesis 47:11-13

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

¹¹ But Joseph gave a possession to his father and his brethren in Egypt, in the best place of the land, in Ramesses, as Pharao had commanded.

¹² And he nourished them, and all his father's house, allowing food to every one.

¹³ For in the whole world there was want of bread, and a famine had oppressed the land: more especially of Egypt and Chanaan.
